My tummy is growling because my mom only fed me one dinner this evening. What was she thinking????? I was cute today and even chased leaves outside, so I’m a little disappointed I didn’t get at least an appetizer or dessert with my supper. Tomorrow I shall teach that female human a lesson…

Yesterday, my mom woke up and got ready and took me to a place called a “bus stop”. I’m not sure what was going on there, but when this big metal thing pulled up, I got all crazy and started barking at people. Mommy laughed and said that we tried (I’m not sure what we tried, but whatever) and we started to walk home. Well, grandpa Jim was there and decided that he would drive us. I was like, “drive??? Where are we going?!?!?”. Turns out we were going to Seattle. Seattle is beautiful! There were so many new smells to discover and people to stare at, that I didn’t know where to start! We walked from Westlake Center (at 4th street) down to this store called Merry Tails (on 1st street). When we walked in, mom acted like she knew the people in there! I guess she works there or something. I got lots of treats, then we went down to the meat market where I got my first REAL bone (not rawhide) and it was filled with marrow (not sure what that is, but it’s delicious). I spent the next little while chewing on that thing and then we went back home. It was amazing. Another thing? We ran into this guy downtown who said he loves 3-legged dogs. My mom asked him if he had a tripawd, and he said, “noooo…I’m missing an arm”. I guess I’m something called an “inspawration”. I don’t know what that is, but I’ll just keep on being myself, thank you very much. Just because I know what “our elevator is here” means, it doesn’t make me a city dog…but I for sure am now, because I survived the city for reals!!!!!
